Three ways to access CEB MCLE

CEB MCLE is different. Unlike most other on-demand MCLE providers, we don’t sell individual courses. As attorneys ourselves, we’ve experienced choosing a course based on a short description, paying for it, and clicking play, only to find it doesn’t have the information we wanted. It’s a waste of time (and money). With fixed and affordable pricing that gives you unlimited access to all our California-specific content, you can sample the course, check the materials, and decide if it’s the right course for you and your practice before you spend an hour or more watching it out of obligation just to get the credits you paid for. We think this is the best way to make MCLE about learning, not just complying.

Available for individuals and firms, our Passport gives you unlimited access to our entire MCLE Library. This package is ideal for the attorney or firm who wants to foster professional development, increase legal knowledge, in addition to CalBar compliance.  

Why people love CLEPassport:

  • Choose your own courses
  • Quality content for a fixed, flat rate
  • Sample any course until you find the right fit
  • Access the latest courses year-round

This package is ideal for the individual attorney who wants a curated bundle of topical, relevant courses in the practice area of their choice. All 25 hours of content are chosen for you within the practice area, and include the required Legal Ethics, Competence Issues, and Elimination of Bias in the Legal Profession and Society hours.  

Why people love Compliance Packages:

  • Practice-area specific packages
  • Quality programs from experts in your field
  • Achieve compliance with relevant content
  • Straight forward, reasonable pricing

Need a few extra MCLE credits or have your eye on a few specific courses? With this package, the individual attorney gets a 6- or 12-credit pass to CEB’s entire MCLE library.   

Why people love CoursePass:

  • Choose your final courses to achieve CalBar compliance
  • Easier financial commitment for access to quality content
  • Access to the latest courses as long as you have credits available
